The invention relates to a flow control valve adapted for use as a flow-dividing and flow-combining valve in hydraulic devices, comprising: a valve body having a first longitudinally extending bore, an outer spool slidably positioned within the bore, the outer spool having an axially extending passageway, a pair of axially extending inner spools slidably positioned within the passageway, the valve body having a first port and a pair of second ports, the outer spool having at least a first opening communicating with the first port and with the passageway, and at least two pairs of second openings therethrough. At least one second opening of each pair is of non-constant longitudinal section narrowing from the outer face of the outer spool on at least a part of the thickness of the second opening, so that a lateral side of the second opening offers an obstacle where a part of the fluid flow entering the second opening crashes before entering the inner spool.
